LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska coach Bo Pelini says defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh (en-DOM'-uh-ken Soo) has been disciplined for getting a ticket for negligent driving.
The coach would not disclose details of Suh's punishment.
Suh told police he swerved to avoid hitting a dog or cat crossing the street when his 2003 Land Rover hit the first of three cars on a Lincoln street early Sunday. Police say Suh had alcohol in his system, but he tested well below the legal limit.
Pelini has a zero-tolerance policy on alcohol-related offenses. But the coach says Suh was not drunk and that the crash was an accident.
